SGI UV is a scalable server supporting up to 4096 cores and 64 TB of memory in one single operating system image of Linux. UV runs applications via virtualization efficiently and as fast or faster than native performance on a small server. This video shows how UV can easily run Microsoft Windows applications through SUSE Cloud OpenStack.

With SGI Performance Suite's data placement and process pinning tools, you can optimize parallel application performance on SGI UV, the Big Brain Computer. SGI has assembled a set of short video tutorials that provide an overview of how applications run on SGI UV 2000 systems, introduction to data placement and process pinning tools, and demonstrations using these tools to optimize codes. After viewing these videos, you will be able to improve performance for your applications.

SGI UV: The Big Brain Computer contains an on-board MPI Offload Engine which accelerates and scales MPI applications. This short video provides an overview of the SGI UV 2000 architecture and a demonstration of SGI MPI PerfBoost, an SGI-developed tool which accelerates MPI applications on SGI UV without requiring any code changes.
